How about Maddux 1997 when he walked 20 the entire year, 6 intentionally. That is scary good control.

Ron Guidry went 25-3 in 1978. What a shutdown season he had. From my personal standpoint, he gets the award for my lifetime.

How come no one is mentioning Denny Mc Lain in 1968??
31 - 6. 1.96 ERA and 280 K's. Plus win in game 6 of series. The ONLY pitcher to win 30 games since 1934! |

Yes, exactly right. This is one of the seasons I alluded to in my initial post. He also had a complete game with less than 80 pitches! Unbelievable how good he was.....He was maybe even better in 1995, 19-2 with an era of around 1.50.....

The 19th c. pitcher were pitching 500 innings a year. If you're doing that, you can be half as "good" of a pitcher as today's aces, and contribute the same number of wins to your team. So I'll nominate Pud Galvin's 1884: 636 innings with a 1.99 ERA (or 159 ERA+ if you like normalized stats).
For live-ball, how about Dwight Gooden's in 1985. 276 innings at a 229 ERA+. |
